The MAPK homolog, Smk1, promotes assembly of the glucan layer of the spore wall in S. cerevisiae

1 INTRODUCTION Smk1 is a mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) family member in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that controls the postmeiotic program of spore formation (Krisak et al., 1994). It is produced specifically during meiosis, as cells enter the first meiotic division (MI) and activated upon completion of the second meiotic division (MII) (Whinston et al., 2013).

Meiotic commitment: More than a transcriptional switch

Summary Commitment to cellular differentiation programs can be controlled by self-activating transcription factors that trigger the expression of cell-type-specific genes. A new study shows that, although commitment to meiosis in yeast is controlled in this manner, additional signaling interactions promote the committed state.

Research Article Abhimannyu Rimal, Zeal P. Kamdar, Chong Wai Tio, Edward Winter DOI: 10.1128/MCB.00097-20 ABSTRACT Smk1 is a meiosis-specific mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) in yeast that controls spore differentiation. It is activated by a MAPK binding protein, Ssp2, upon completion of the meiotic divisions. The activation of Smk1 by Ssp2 is positively regulated by a meiosis-specific coactivator of the anaphase promoting complex (APC/C) E3 ubiquitin ligase, Ama1.
